Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss

“What do you mean?” asked Ling Chuxi, chewing on the meaning of Su Yizhi’s words. Just now the feeling she had during the psychological attack was extremely clear. If it were not for the sword spirit within the Luo Chen Sword that appeared in the nick of time, her own consciousness would have fallen into an abyss of darkness. It was indeed a powerful attack, so why was Su Yizhi saying that she had overestimated the veiled woman?

“The Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique is actually based on the same logic as the martial skills we all usually use. For example, your Turning Cloud Gesture and Spiral Battle Qi techniques both focus on mind control over Battle Qi. As for the Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique, it is the opposite as it highly concentrates Battle Qi or the Qi Of True Essence on the mind, affecting the mind of the other party. If you were to exchange blows in a direct confrontation with her without being caught off-guard as you were just now, she could still deal you some loss, but to hurt you entirely based on the Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique alone, she is not yet capable of doing so. Even if you did not do anything just now, you would have sobered up very quickly,” explained Su Yizhi. Earlier on during her confrontation with Qiu Gaohe, he had seen how Ling Chuxi attacked in battle and he could also pinpoint the secret within her Turning Cloud Gesture and the Spiral Battle Qi.

Ling Chuxi thought about it all in detail for a moment and felt relieved. Thinking about it now, what Su Yizhi said was also true. If one was able to kill another invisibly, purely based on an attack of the mind, then why would anyone be bothered to learn any martial arts skills? Everyone should just do as the proverb says and be a big eye staring back at a small eye every day without solving anything tangible. It seemed like the only bad thing about this arrangement would be that everyone would eventually become crossed eyed? Okay, stop, stop. She just went totally off tangent here. Bring it back.

“Who is she?” asked Ling Chuxi. She had noted the animosity just now and no matter whether it had managed to hurt her or not, either way, it was the other party who had made the first move so unceremoniously. It is said that a man who does not take his revenge properly is no man and so it goes for a woman as well without exclusion.

“She is from Cold Moon Palace. The Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique is a secret technique inherited from Cold Moon Palace. Actually, with her cultivation level, her execution of it should not be sufficient to affect your mind. I am guessing that she must be carrying some special treasure from her sect to amplify her attacks,” deduced Su Yizhi after pondering for a moment.

“Cold Moon Palace?” Since Ling Chuxi did not understand much about sects, she repeated this foreign name without any understanding of what meaning it held.

“Cold Moon Palace isn’t famous for martial arts skills amongst the great sects. However, with their Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique, they managed to obtain quite a bit of an advantage when dealing with opponents of about the same cultivation level, and that’s why they have made a name for themselves as one of the great sects,” explained Su Yizhi further. If their reputation was naturally renown amongst those in the know of such sects, at least Ling Chuxi had never heard of them before.

“Why are they meddling in this matter?” Ling Chuxi asked a little curiously.

“Cold Moon Palace’s strongest skill is the Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique. However, it also has a fatal flaw. Practicing that cultivation method long term would cause one’s mind to be abnormal. Only the medical skills secretly inherited from the Golden Pill Sect is able to cure it. However, since the Golden Pill Sect’s medical skills has been divided into three parts, they should be here for the part belonging to the Su family,” said Su Yizhi solemnly with a frown.

“Are you saying that she’s crazy?” laughed Ling Chuxi in a manner implying she found some joy in this instance of another’s misfortune. But in all seriousness, since the technique utilized Battle Qi to urge on the mind, then becoming crazy after extended usage of it was also a very ordinary matter. Thinking back to how high and mighty the girl who was covered in a veil acted, Ling Chuxi suddenly pitied her a bit. It turns out that she was not acting all high and mighty without reason, but rather since her mind was not normal, she could be fearful that if she suddenly acted up, she would feel ashamed if people saw through her.

Ling Chuxi admitted to herself that her attitude of finding joy in another’s misery was not good. However, she really was happy and there was nothing she could do about it.

“Yes. That’s more or less what it means. Ahem, ahem,” answered Su Yizhi, coughing twice as he did. Badmouthing someone behind their backs was not too good a thing to do and it was against the nature of an expert.

“Since they are meddling in this matter this time, doesn’t it mean that it would be extremely difficult for us to win?” asked Ling Chuxi a little worriedly. After vaguely sensing that the Golden Pill Sect was related to her origins, Ling Chuxi placed more importance on the Sword Pill Meeting.
